Hailing from Toronto, Edward Burtynsky stands out as one of the most environmental photographers of all time. With his breakout study (and resulting film) ‘Manufactured Landscapes’, Burtynksy presented grand-scale visuals to help viewers question the morality of production cycles for consumer goods from China and other blighted landscapes caused by modern day lifestyles. Breaking a 7 year hiatus from the realm of film, Burtynksky and Jennifer Baichwal have teamed up once again to create yet another thought provoking documentary entitled […]

Banksy is a modern day prophet who’s work beckons the masses to think; and for that he will go down in the books as a legend.

Taking up an ‘Artist in Residence’ post for […]

Originally being tipped off by Juxtapoz about the grand vertical garden on the side of a building in Paris (see the website of the project HERE ), I did some further investigation into other vertical gardens and have created a little inspiration gallery below.

Located in the high desert of southern California ( in between Ojai & Bakersfield), the community is off the grid, and resources are limited and internet bandwidth is no exception, so I haven’t been able to upload files to this site due to restricted data usage.
